Mr.Ram Priya Sharan Singh, APP ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ALOK KUMAR SINHA ORAL ORDER 29-04-2026 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned APP for the State.

2. The petitioner apprehends his arrest in connection with Mahila P.S. Case No- 83 of 2025 registered for the offence under Section 69, 3(5) of BNSS.

3. As per prosecution case, the Informant Aliya Nazir on 18-07-2025 before the SHO, Mahila P.S., Patna alleging therein that her marriage was arraigned with Md Kaif who has made physical relationship with her and later-on demanded dowry and engaged to another girl on 19-07-2025. Accordingly, the FIR.

4. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner is innocent and has committed no offence and he has

Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that both the petitioner as well as the informant are adult and there has not been any physical relationship. Learned counsel for the petitioner next submits that petitioner is now a married person living happily with his wife.

5. The learned APP opposes the anticipatory bail application.

6. From the allegations levelled in the FIR it transpires that there is allegation against the petitioner of having established physical relationship with the informant. Both the petitioner as well as the informant are adults and the possibility of there being a consensual relationship cannot be ruled that because the petitioner and informant could not get married, therefore, the petitioner has been implicated in this case. Petitioner is now a married person living happily with his wife. Under these circumstances, I am inclined to grant privilege of anticipatory bail to the petitioner.

7. Accordingly, the petitioner above named, in the event of his arrest or surrender before the learned Court below within a period of six weeks, is directed to be released on anticipatory bail on his furnishing bail-bonds in the sum of Rs.10,000/-(Rupees Ten Thousand) with two sureties of the like
